Beautiful Nightmare
Throughout the night
Your blue eyes fill my sight.
For when the morning comes
You’ll leave to take on the Sun
 
Though the danger is great
I know that it’s too late.
For love is limitless
You make me speechless.
 
Chorus
For you’re a beautiful nightmare,
I just can’t get you out of my mind.
But who says I want to
What if I never what it to end?
For you own all of me
Don’t ever let me go
Cause I’m your beautiful nightmare.
 
Verse Two
Even though it’s crazy
You still amaze me.
Your body covers mine
In this little space of time.
 
The world around us
Is in such chaos
But your love blocks it all out
The pleasure makes me cry out.
 
(Chorus)

Time is ticking, don't we know?
You're skin so white, so white as snow.
The intoxicating scent I know,
I know I shouldn't but it's for the show
No one knows, just you and me
It's forbidden can't you see
If you'd only wake up
Wake up, wake up, wake up!

(Chorus)

Oh can't you see,
This is all of me.
Cause we're a beautiful nightmare

Wow this was so beautiful! I really wish I could hear it played. You had a lovely rhythm throughout and it was interesting how you kept it sweet but still managed to portray a more provocative undertone in some lines. I loved it! I don't have anything too negative to say other than one tiny thing: I have this pet peeve when people end two rhyming lines with the same word. In your case, you used "out":

But your love blocks it all out
The pleasure makes me cry out

But see I'm stuck on this critique because I don't know how else you could've worded it. So if you can think of some other way to make it rhyme but still keep the message, then awesome. If not, no big deal, it's still pretty good how it is.

Another thing I loved was how you used two very contradictory words, "beautiful" and "nightmare." It added to the mystery of the piece. Keep writing, you've got a great song here! I so wish I could hear it!
